Computer Vision at the Edge and in the Cloud: Architectures, Algorithms, Processors, and Tools

Computer vision is rapidly becoming ubiquitous. From autonomous robots, vehicles and drones to smart buildings to home assistants that can advise you on your fashion choices, vision is showing up everywhere.

A key architectural choice underlies this ubiquity: should vision processing be done at the edge, in the cloud, or a hybrid combination of the two? Jeff Bier, Founder of the Embedded Vision Alliance, will discuss the benefits and trade-offs of edge, cloud, and hybrid models, and when you should consider each option.

Within this edge-cloud framework, Jeff will also provide an update on important recent developments in the technologies enabling vision, including processors, sensors, algorithms, development tools, services and standards. Jeff will also highlight some of the most interesting and most promising end-products and applications incorporating vision capabilities.
